Released in May 2024, this whiskey is a member of Bardstown Bourbon Company's Collaborative Series. For this entry in the collection, Bardstown Bourbon Co. blended 8- and 9-year-old Indiana rye whiskeys with 10-, 11- and 14-year-old Kentucky bourbon. Once satisfied with the blend, Bardstown Bourbon Co. moved the spirit into Indian single malt barrels sourced from Amrut and allowed it to rest for an additional year and a half before bottling it at 110 proof.
Sugared almonds, red berries, baking spices, ground pepper, and cinnamon segue into fruit tea, Red Vines, and herbal notes, with a mouth-filling finish of milk chocolate, malt, and oak char.
Utilizing a finishing barrel type that most consumers will not be familiar with results in a fantastic combination of flavors for the latest Bardstown Bourbon Company Collaborative Series release.
And it pulls it off exceptionally well, so much so that you’ll surprise yourself with how the flavors of this roll on in your memory long after you’ve put the glass down.
